North Corktown, Detroit

North Corktown (also known as Briggs) is a neighborhood located in Detroit, Michigan, bounded roughly by I-75 on the south, Martin Luther King Jr Boulevard on the north, I-96 on the west, and the John C. Lodge Freeway on the east. North Corktown was originally part of the Corktown neighborhood. This changed with the construction of I-75, which severed Corktown into two separate neighborhoods. History North Corktown came into existence after the construction of I-75. Before this period North Corktown was part of the Corktown neighborhood. The name Corktown comes from the neighborhoods early residents. In the 1830s Irish Immigrants from County Cork began living in the area that is today Corktown and North Corktown. The early residents built many Queen Anne style homes as well as row houses on relatively narrow lots. In the 1960s the neighborhood began to steadily decline, largely due to freeway construction and urban renewal projects. During the 1990s Briggs had a much higher rate of poverty and a higher percentage of white residents than most of Detroit. A high portion of the white residents in Briggs were either from Appalachia or had family roots there. Redevelopment Since the 1990s the neighborhood has seen increased investment. Older homes have been restored, and new housing has been constructed throughout the neighborhood. In 2007 the MotorCity Casino and hotel resort was completed in North Corktown. This has brought much attention to the neighborhood as well as jobs, retail, restaurants, and tourists. Also, Hostel Detroit, opened its doors to travelers in Spring 2011. It is located on Vermont Street. Developers have set their sights on North Corktown due to its proximity to Corktown, Downtown, and Midtown. Since 2019, there has been increased townhome development in the neighborhood with multiple projects having been completed and currently underway.

Northern Natural Gas Pipeline

Northern Natural Gas Pipeline — трубопровідна система, споруджена для постачання природного газу з півдня США до району на захід від озера Мічиган. Northern Natural Gas, введена в експлуатацію у 1930 році, стала першим трубопроводом, який мав постачати блакитне паливо за межі газопромислового регіону на північ від Мексиканської затоки. В результаті численних модернізацій станом на середину 2010-х років загальна довжина трубопроводів системи, діаметр яких коливається від 50 до 900 мм, досягла 14 700 миль. Робочий тиск при цьому становить від 0,3 до 11 Мпа. У складі Northern Natural Gas працює 51 компресорна станція, що забезпечує пропускну здатність у південній частині («зона родовищ») на рівні 17,5 млрд м3 та в північній («зона збуту») майже 60 млрд м3 на рік. Фактичний обсяг транспортування по системі у 2016 році становив 11,1 млрд м3. Основна траса Northern Natural Gas починається на стику Техасу та Нью-Мексико у Пермському нафтогазоносному басейні. Після цього вона проходить через суміжні райони Техасу, Оклахоми та Канзасу, де розробляються басейни Анадарко та Хьюготон, та прямує через Небраску і Айову до Міннесоти. Окремі гілки заходять до Вісконсину, Мічигану та Південної Дакоти. На півдні Northern Natural Gas має інтерконектори із системами західного спрямування — El Paso Natural Gas та Transwestern pipeline, які передусім орієнтовані на постачання Каліфорнії, проте в 1990-х роках отримали можливість роботи в бідирекціональному режимі. Також у «зоні родовищ» існують інтерконектори з іншими трубопроводами, спорудженим для постачання регіону Великих Озер — Panhandle Eastern Pipeline та західними гілками ANR Pipeline і Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America. В центральній частині системи Northern Natural Gas до неї може надходити блакитне паливо з басейнів Скелястих гір, зокрема через трубопроводи Cheyenne Plains Gas Pipeline та Trailblazer Pipeline. У північні же зоні існують інтерконектори з газопроводами, через які транспортується канадський природний газ, як то Northern Border або Great Lakes Gas Transmission. Можливо відзначити, що на початку 2000-х більше половини ресурсу до системи надходило саме з Канади, тоді як на регіон Скелястих гір припадало близько 10 % поставок. Разом з системою діють три підземні сховища газу активною ємністю 1,9 млрд м3 та чотири сховища ЗПГ загальним обсягом 0,1 млрд м3. Примітки
